About this experience
This guided walking tour focuses on the exterior and architectural details of the Sagrada Familia, designed by Antoni Gaudi in Barcelona. The basilica has been under construction since 1882 and remains one of Europe's largest ongoing architectural projects. It features two completed monumental facades: the Nativity Facade, which Gaudi supervised, and the Passion Facade, finished after his death with sculptures by Josep Maria Subirachs. A third facade, the Glory Facade, is planned for the future. The guide will provide insights into the architectural details, religious symbolism, and construction history visible from outside the basilica. Located in the Eixample district, known for its grid layout and Catalan Modernist buildings, the Sagrada Familia is a significant landmark in the area.

Basilica de la Sagrada Familia
Guests meet their guide in front of the KFC on Avinguda de Gaudi and begin with a reading of the Nativity Facade, the only facade Gaudi supervised directly, where stone carvings depict scenes from Christ's life alongside plants, animals, and insects drawn from nature. The tour continues to the Passion Facade, sculpted by Josep Maria Subirachs after Gaudi's death, where the guide decodes the symbolic narrative of the crucifixion and a mathematical magic square hidden in the stone. Throughout the walk, travelers gain context on the Eixample district's 19th-century grid design and its place in the story of Catalan Modernism. The tour closes with an overview of the ongoing construction and the planned Glory Facade. Tickets are not included.
